    Great Easy Buttercream Recipe

    I use this recipe regularly.

    This afternoon Miss 10 and I had some special Grandma/granddaughter time and made some fun cupcakes for tomorrow's St Patrick's Day fundraiser at school. The instructions are so straightforward, I didn't have to help her at all.

    She was very proud of herself and her creations and rightly so!

    FANTASTIC buttercream recipe - it is a bit hot up here in Mackay so I added a 1/3 cup extra icing sugar and a teaspoon of cornflour - to stabilise it. I will never go back to the mix-master recipe again! Thankyou for a great recipe!

    Perfect! I used pure icing sugar so I blitzed that first to get rid of the lumps before adding the butter. Lovely topping for my blueberry muffins 😁

    Submitted by Carol Millington on 8. April 2022 - 20:22.

    I made a 'jaffa icing' using this recipe today. I used 280gms bought icing sugar (not keen on making my own icing sugar as it seems to still remain gritty for the icing) and 20gms cocoa, and for the milk I used chocolate milk and used 1 drop of wild orange oil (doterra) for the jaffa flavour.

    So good! I did nudge it up to speed 3 because I'm impatient like that. But it was the lightest buttercream I've ever made. My new favourite recipe. We coloured it & turned it into rainbow icing for rainbow unicorn cupcakes with my 4yo. (Photo is before sprinkles were added)

    To make chocolate butter cream I just added a few small scoops of cocoa. I increased speed to 4 with just over a minute to go. And when finished scraped down and mixed again for 1 minute reverse speed 4. Very nice

    Made triple quantity. Wouldn't recommend doing this though. Had to start with part of the mixture and to it a bit at a time. If I'd remembered to add the milk earlier it would have been easier. This did turn out perfect though.

    I used pure icing sugar or should I have used icing mixture? And should it be sifted?

    Made a trial batch of buttercream. I had normal sugar and milled it at 20 seconds, speed 10 to get it to icing consistency. The batch turned out almost perfect in consistency BUT I could taste the gritty sugar particles still. What should I do to make it perfect?! Help please!
